4 significantly has best value for price.

the only thing it lacks is an ssd cache compared to rest, in return of a stronger gpu.

and upgrade to ssd later and buy a 2.5 inch usb 3.0 case for 1 tb hdd for data and backup

I'm in a Lenovo now (Y560). Build quality is poor. The fans buzz and the screen brightness frequently fades. In my experience I would not buy a Lenovo.

The Y500 is on sale on the Lenovo site for $879 and you can get a 2nd GT650m GPU for $137 and run SLI if you need it.

My Y500 that I got last week. Runs all games on high with just the 1 GPU. MW online, Farcry 3, Max payne 3.

It is fast and a very good build.

i7
8 GB ram
1080 screen
1 TB with 16GB ssd

The extra GPU pops into the ultra bay in 5 seconds. Best Laptop I have ever had.
